Barbara,
NEGATIVE information must be heard and acknowledged. If the facts dispute each other then so be it. I have done just what you claimed. I called and talked to John personally and found him nothing but evasive and inconclusive. The point to bring out here is that there are people on this thread that seem to be "in the know" about upcoming PRs and other interesting tidbits of information that they simply refuse to share with others. Vague references will be made to good news coming forth or other such babble but any attempt to have those same "mouthpieces" share the information is met with silence. The idea of the thread is to share information, good or bad, so that all can benefit from it. Of course, that is a naive thought because each person has their own goal for personal profit.
So, the end result is, According to John, "Don't believe the trash on the bulletin boards, just believe what comes from the company." I can agree with that. But, when the company has "favorites" that allude to knowing something but not sharing it at that time...then it is HYPE. HYPE sponsored by a company that reads the boards and knows how their "privately released" information is being used or touted.
It is important that jhild & Colleen bring forth the potential negatives, otherwise this would be a one-way investor forum leading to groupthink.
Just my humble opinion, but then again it's my humble cash that is invested in this stock also.
aloha, E.B |
